A ship was unfortunately wrecked at sea. The first mate jumped into the lifeboat with nine surviving sailors and drifted aimlessly at sea. A week has passed, and there is still no hope of being rescued. The first mate is guarding the last half pot of water, and nine people are not allowed to touch it. As long as there is water, there is hope of living. Without water, it is difficult for everyone to persist.
The first mate is the only person in the lifeboat with a gun. He pointed a gun at the nine sailors who might rush to grab water at any time and asked them to curse and roar at themselves. Of the nine people, the most fierce one is a bald guy. He stared at the first mate fiercely and taunted him with a hoarse voice. Why don't you give up? You can't hold on! ? With that, he jumped up and reached for the pot. The first mate rudely pointed a gun at his chest. The bald man sighed and sat down obediently. In order to protect this half basin of fresh water that sustains everyone's life hope, the first mate has not slept for two days and nights. Although he keeps telling himself that he must hold on, someone will push all the victims to the abyss of death with reckless actions. However, thirst and drowsiness tortured him to the point where he couldn't hold on any longer, and his hand holding the gun softened little by little. Confused, the first mate actually gave the gun to the nearest bald man and said intermittently, Excuse me? Take my place. ? Then he fell face down into the cabin.
At dawn, the first mate woke up. He heard a hoarse voice in his ear say, come, have a drink. ? It is baldness
The bald man held a lighted kettle in one hand, while the other hand held a gun firmly and aimed at eight other crazier sailors. Seeing the first mate's puzzled face, the bald head said with a slightly embarrassed face. You said, let me replace you, right? You are a foreman and a conductor, so you are responsible for others, right?
Later, they finally waited for a rescue boat. To the great shock of the rescuers, although this 10 person was so thirsty that his lips were bleeding, the big deputy was holding a light kettle in his hand. The captain who came to the rescue took the new kettle from the first mate's clenched hand and shook it. A thin rustling sound came through the wall of the pot. The captain unscrewed the lid carefully, and a stream of fine sand slipped from the pot?
Case 2: Persist in ideals and beliefs Adversity gives people valuable opportunities for tempering. Only those who can stand the test of adversity can become truly strong. Great men at all times and in all countries struggled out of adversity with indomitable spirit. Beethoven, who was deaf, trudged on the black and white keys covered with thorns, knocked on the sacred door of fate with his fingers, and made a brilliant movement in which musicians struggled tenaciously against bad luck. Sima Qian endured the pain of castration and completed the historical masterpiece Historical Records. Zhou Wenwang was detained and played Zhouyi. ? If the sky is a great task for Sri Lankan people, they must first put up with their thoughts and work hard to exercise their bones and muscles. ? Therefore, adversity is a stepping stone for the strong to climb the peak and an abyss for the weak to go to destruction.
Some countries in Europe and America deliberately turn straight roads into detours. Road construction costs a lot, and so does driving time. Is it true for those Europeans and Americans who have an economic mind and regard time as money? Ask for it? . But they think it is worthwhile, because speeding on a straight road without any obstacles for a long time can easily paralyze people and lead to traffic accidents. With the obstruction of corners, drivers must always be vigilant and dare not take it lightly. Facts have proved that their approach is wise.
Adversity needs neither praise nor expectation, but it must be faced squarely. Once we are in adversity, the most important thing is to have confidence, perseverance, courage, perseverance and practical spirit. Even at the end of our rope, we still have to think that we will have a turn for the better. Since ancient times, anyone who can achieve great things is a down-to-earth and hard-working person. It is better to retreat into a net than to fish in the forest. Sighing is not the way, and fantasy is not the way. Only by doing it with confidence can we get out of the predicament. Edison spent ten years, after 50 thousand experiments, invented the battery; Zhu Kezhen, a famous scientist, went on a field trip in his seventies and got first-hand information. Until the last day, he never forgot to make scientific research records. How many difficulties and hardships they have overcome! Many advanced figures set an example and explained the value of life, the meaning of life and where and in what form it should be embodied. Plum blossoms can't be fragrant without some hardships. Let's learn to be strong, learn to fight, and struggle out of adversity, which will become our great wealth. I appreciate ostrovsky's words: human life is like a rushing flood, and it is difficult to stir up beautiful waves without encountering islands and reefs. ?
As a disabled youth, Zhang Haidi has made unimaginable efforts, overcome many difficulties and made contributions to the society that ordinary people can't even make: he treated his fellow villagers with acupuncture and other medical skills, wrote, translated and published many works, and also created poems, essays and songs. She has participated in hundreds of large-scale social welfare activities, handled countless letters from all over the country and even abroad, received countless visitors, and gave direct spiritual encouragement to countless teenagers, especially the disabled. Someone once praised Zhang Haidi with such a poem: You can't walk, but you have opened up a glorious road; You can fly because you are an eagle with ideal wings! ? Once, a foreign reporter interviewed Zhang Haidi and asked her when she was happiest. She smiled and said: I should tell the truth, I am the happiest in my dream. Because I am so healthy in my dream, I have a pair of very strong legs that can run so far away; But when I opened my eyes, such happiness was gone. I also have a sense of happiness, that is, through certain efforts, I have made certain achievements for the society and the people, and I feel very happy. I use Marx's words to sum up my life, that is what Marx said, people who can bring happiness to others are also happy. I am willing to be such a person. ? From Zhang Haidi's understanding and feeling of happiness, we can realize her lofty life ideal and persistent life belief.
? Ideal is a stone, knocking out a single spark; Ideal is fire, lighting the extinguished lamp; Ideal is a lamp that illuminates the road at night; Ideal is the road that leads you to the dawn. ? Ideals and beliefs are the indispensable spiritual pillar of life and the spiritual power to promote people's progress and struggle. It is like a bright spark, igniting people's passion, inspiring people's intelligence and courage to make progress. Einstein once said that I have never regarded ease and happiness as the purpose of life. Lei Feng said that people eat to live, but living is by no means to eat. This shows that life should have lofty ideals, otherwise, life will be meaningless. Ideal, as its name implies, is a reasonable idea and a goal that people yearn for, believe and pursue. Establishing lofty ideals is an inevitable requirement for establishing a correct outlook on life and values, and it is also an objective need for people to grow up healthily. Generally speaking, people always have ideals, but at different levels. The fundamental sign that people are different from animals is that people have thinking, emotion and creativity, and any words and actions of people have a certain purpose. Life is inseparable from the dependence on material and the pursuit of spirit. Full of ideals can be said to be one of the essential differences between human beings and ordinary animals. Only those who set up correct ideals and strive for them can find the best destination in life. Deng Xiaoping once said: According to my long-term experience in political and military activities, I think the most important thing is the unity of the people. To unite, we must have the same ideals and firm beliefs. ? Without ideals, China cannot adhere to the socialist system, develop the socialist economy and realize the four modernizations. ? So, what is the ideal and how to realize it?
Ideal is a vision for a bright future, a well-founded, reasonable and realizable imagination or expectation, and a concentrated expression of people's world outlook, outlook on life and values in the goal of life struggle. Belief refers to people's unswerving confirmation and belief in the correctness and justice of existing or possible things and concepts, and it is a natural mode of thinking and action based on people's practical experience of how to think and do in life practice. When it becomes a whole and universal concept and attitude of human beings, faith becomes faith and serves as an example or guide for people's actions.
